In South Africa, Time of Use (TOU) tariffs have been available to Eskom's customers since 1986. TOU tariffs are intended to encourage users to avoid using electrical energy during the periods at which the national electricity system is stressed during normal operating conditions, i.e. peak periods. It has not always been clear how customers were responding to the different types of Eskom tariffs. A study was done of Eskom's Large Power Users (LPUs) in the Western Cape province of South Africa. Customers were categorised into City of Cape Town (CCT), 2 types of KSACS customers, Agricultural, Non-Agricultural and Rural Municipalities. At least 30 customers within a category were selected as a sample of that category. 2014-12-28T20:04:35Z 2014-12-28T20:04:35Z 2010 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10432 eng application/pdf Department of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
